Dundee Airport

Fly into Dundee for a conference and its magnificent riverside setting - the sparkling silvery Tay, the Rail and Road Bridges, the surrounding hills - will all be etched into your memory. Dundee Airport, on the shore of the River Tay and set against a panoramic backdrop of Fife, is less than 2 miles from the City Centre, but very easy to reach from the whole of the surrounding area. It is within minutes of Dundee's principal conference centres at the Caird and Marryat Halls, the University of Dundee, the University of Abertay Dundee, Ninewells Teaching Hospital, the Wellcome Institute, The Scottish Crop Research Institute, and the Technology Park. This friendly and easy to use airport provides a fast and frequent service between London City Airport with Scot Airways Dornier 328 Regional Airliner.

Downfield Golf Club - Dundee

Welcome to Downfield Golf Club. Downfield is recognised as one of the finest inland course in the United Kingdom. Set in beautiful parkland, Dundee's premier course is a challenge to every golfer teeing off at the wonderful 1st hole and moving round the rolling contours of the course. The wildlife on the course is breathtaking with foxes, squirrels, deer, water fowl, ducks and buzzards, as well as many other interesting species scampering around. With over 100 species of tree within the perimeter it is no wonder people remember their visit long after they have gone away.
